August Recess Action: People's Speak-Outs (August 21-September 4)
- Members of Congress are heading home this weekend, and they need to hear from YOU, their constituents! MoveOn will be asking our membership to partake in "People's Speak-Out" action events for the whole August Recess period. For Mobilizers, we're asking you to plan your events between August 21 and September 4. You have the opportunity to make a real impact by attending trainings that will help you host or attend the most effective speak outs possible —your third and final monthly action of Resistance Summer—but we highly encourage you to host and/or attend more than one August Recess event! Check out the Resources page of this website for more information and your weekly roundup email from July 28th.
